Quadrupling your coffee intake. Never taking your eyes off your computer. Falling asleep at your desk with your head on an open book. Sound familiar?.....
Welcome to finals week!
As we become consumed by exams, projects, papers, and presentations, we might forget some simple actions we can take reduce our energy consumption:
- Try to turn off those lights before your head droops to your desk
- Set your computer to hibernate after a short period of inactivity (saves more energy than screensavers or sleep)
- Keep your thermostat at a maximum of 70° in the winter, and remember to turn it down at night and when you go out
